M 45 from Czech Republic

[astropintr]

Hallo south guys!
I am posting my photo of M 45 - Pleiades. At night I had problem with my connection to computer for guiding, because last night we had temperature around -5 C in the Czech Republic - too cold. Connection to my PC failed, but my colegue had autoguider. I tried guiding with autoguider on my new mount. And this photo is my result. I took picture with my telescope Skywatcher ED 80/600 on EQ-6 mount version Skyscan.

I also tried new processing in IRIS. Before IRIS I used only Adobe Photoshop.
Results are better.

exposure: 8 x 7 min, ISO: 1600
processed: IRIS, Adobe Photoshop

Nice image astropintr.

Plenty of colour and detail in the gas cloud.

That is a excellent image of M45.

At -5 degrees you don't need to cool your camera to stop noise.

Thank you very much for your replies!

Only one comment - I used only 8 x 7 min, on ISO: 1600
results would be better on 15 x 7 min, ISO: 1600.

I hope, that in next year I would like to try more pictures!

Thank you all!:)

stunning - I tried to capture this in August last year, no where near the clarity or detail of your wonderful shot

Shining like diamonds as they should be. Well done. What camera is used and any filters?

Regards

Hallo!

This picture was taken without any filters and with unmodified Canon EOS 350 D.

My colegue from Czech Republic used another processing in Adobe Photoshop with layers and you can see result.

Thanks Libor for processing!
